Fieldbox enables secure and productive remote development environments

A leader in offshore energy and floating production systems, wanted to provide its developers with a remote development environment that guaranteed security while promoting productivity.

Fieldbox worked with this company to create a solution enabling developers to securely access project-specific data, audit logs and maintain productivity, even remotely.

The challenge

 

Our client’s development teams faced several challenges:

  • Data access restrictions meant that developers couldn’t access the data they needed directly from their machines.

  • The solution required differential access control, based on project needs, to ensure that developers only had access to relevant data.

  • Audit logs were essential to track and control data access for security and compliance purposes.

 

Fieldbox proposition

 

Fieldbox designed a secure and comprehensive development environment, drawing on open-source tools to create a seamless workflow. The solution included:

  • A remote integrated development environment (IDE) using Coder, enabling developers to work from anywhere.

  • Real-time log monitoring using Loki and Grafana for a better understanding of operations.

  • Access control via Pomerium, ensuring data segregation according to project-specific roles.

  • VNET peering to securely connect remote machines to the necessary data networks.

Results and benefits

 

Fieldbox’s solution provided a secure, flexible environment that increased developer productivity while maintaining strict security protocols.

By enabling remote access to project-specific data and implementing real-time monitoring, our client’s teams experienced greater operational efficiency and compliance with security standards.

The solution also ensured seamless collaboration across global teams without compromising on data integrity.
